Electric Guitar Review

2 humbuckers. Mahogany neck and body.

Epiphone announces the introduction of the new Epiphone “Goth” Collection. Based upon Gibson’s very successful “Gothic” line, the Epiphone Goth Collection features a Les Paul Studio, G-400, Flying-V, and Explorer all with Satin-Black finish and Black hardware for an absolutely wicked look. Add to that, a Roman numeral “XII” inlay on the 12th fret, a Celtic Cross on the headstock, and ’57 Classic alnico-v exposed-coil humbuckers, and you’ve got guitars guaranteed to “wake the dead!” Each model features Epiphone’s Limited Lifetime warranty.

Since 1873, Epiphone has been producing fine musical instruments including guitars, basses, banjos, mandolins, amplifiers, and accessories.

Feature:
The tone knobs are pretty useless, but do you really use them? They do little difference but the three channel toggle does it all for ya, from killer leads to super smooth rhythms for blues.

Quality:
Its really sturdy. Its neck-through, so its a lot more durable than the Gibson. They may be neck through too, but the necks on Gibson’s are super fragile. Ever dropped this axe on concrete and it never went out of tune and don’t use a Floyd rose. It’s really.

Sound:
Love the way this thing sounds. The humbuckers really play their part in this one. The best thing for doom metal.

Value:
This guitar is priced perfectly, so you get all the bang you can for your buck. Check Latest Price.

Desirability:
This axe definitely looks metal. All black satin finish, looks like its been through hell. It looks awesome on stage.

Overall:
overall, its an awesome guitar

Gibson Guitar announced the limited availability of the world’s first guitar with robotic technology, the Gibson Robot Guitar. It will available in selected stores December 7, 2007
First Run Limited Edition, only 10 per store.

Gibson claims it’s the first robotic technology guitar. With tagline ”All you have to do is play it.”, you won’t need do dirty job again. With a revolutionary mix of on-board processing, a data transmitting tailpiece, tune-control bridge, and Powerhead Locking Tuners, the guitar automatically stays in tune, and can move to an alternate tuning with the turn of a switch. So really, all you have to do is play.

This robot guitar features:

1. The Gibson Robot Guitar eliminates tuning problems for guitarists. It automatically tunes to standard A440 tuning.
2. It also allows players to access six commonly used altered tuning presets at the push of a button. These tunings were used on many well-known hit songs, giving players easy access for the very first time.
3. The Gibson Robot Guitar allows the guitar to be intonated in seconds after string changes, truss rod adjustments or change in weather conditions.
4. Finally, with the locking tuner, single string changes or changing the entire set of strings are an automated breeze.
